What are the various ways you cope with the heat? My boat even though the most well insulated one I ever had becomes unbearable in the cabin during the afternoon if its over 30 C outside. Even with some fore to aft breeze or a fan it’s not like I can cook or even eat warm food without breaking into full sweat. That’s why I fantasize about running a tiny air conditioner even if its just a fan over ice cubes or cold plate powered by those new 22 percent efficient solar panels. Thank you, don’t let me forget I owe you guys that cake (can’t hurt to dream: maybe a cool cabin to eat it in too).
How extensive is your first aid kit?
Dear Liz and Jamie,
How are you planning for your retirement? Will you eventually become landlubbers, depending on investments in a Thai nursing home, or remain onboard the Vespers until you or the boat become too frail to sail.
We love your videos and admire you work ethic and intellect. Richard was particularly impressed with Jamie’s show on photography. Your energy and up beat attitudes are inspiring. We are energized and educated by your example. Thank you.
